25 Feb. 2026 /Mpelembe Media/ — The Borowitz Report details allegations of sexual misconduct by Donald Trump involving teenagers and children, referencing claims found within the Epstein files and a 2018 BBC Panorama documentary. The author asserts that the Department of Justice has attempted to suppress evidence, such as withholding interviews with a woman who alleged Trump abused her when she was 13. The BBC documentary, which has never aired in the US, features on-camera testimonies from women who encountered Trump as teen models, including Barbara Pilling. It also highlights instances where Trump bragged about invading pageant dressing rooms to ogle naked girls, including contestants as young as 15 at the Miss Teen USA pageant. Asserting that the FCC is aligned with Trump, the author urges readers to bypass traditional broadcasting by sharing the documentary clips online. Continue reading →

23 Feb. 2026 /Mpelembe Media — The provided sources detail the immense global fallout following a massive 2026 Department of Justice document release concerning deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. Government investigations and news reports highlight how JPMorgan Chase executives reportedly ignored internal alarms to facilitate Epstein’s financial activities for nearly two decades. The materials reveal a vast network of enablers, leading to the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and the resignations of prominent figures like Goldman Sachs lawyer Kathryn Ruemmler and UK Ambassador Peter Mandelson. Academic institutions like Harvard, Columbia, and UCLA are also facing internal reckonings as files expose deep ties between Epstein and various professors or donors. While the FBI maintains there is no evidence of a specific “client list” or blackmail, the documents have sparked a wave of accountability across global politics, finance, and elite social circles. Ultimately, the sources illustrate a systemic failure of high-level oversight that allowed Epstein to maintain influence long after his initial criminal convictions. Continue reading →

Selections, Inc., striking down the sweeping global tariffs implemented by the Trump administration. Chief Justice John Roberts authored the majority opinion, which ruled that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not grant the President the authority to unilaterally impose tariffs. The Court emphasized that while IEEPA allows the President to “regulate” commerce during national emergencies, it does not transfer Congress’s exclusive constitutional power to levy taxes and duties to the Executive Branch.
